Review title of RyanBeautiful and Unique

I wasn't really interested in this game when I first saw it, but I often purchase games and apps just to support developers, and decided to get this one. I was, however, pleasantly surprised at the beauty and innovation of this game. I have only played for an hour or so far, but have nothing to complain about. I'm getting smooth framerates on my Surface Book (i5, no discrete GPU), and can't wait to try it out on my gaming rig. I'll have to play it a little more to determine if I think it is worth the price tag, but from what I have seen so far I am very excited play more. I'll update when I finish the game.

Great game. Astounding visual effects, amazing and emotional story, and brutally hard. I played on the intel 4000 and it works great on my laptop. Recommendation: Buy it!!!

Review title of AdamGreat Experience

I used a Logitech version of the Xbox controller to play this on my Windows 10 PC, and I have to say the experience was delightful. From a technical standpoint, it was flawless, everything just worked and the gameplay and mechanics were flawless. There was never a time where I thought, "I should be able to do that" and I couldn't. The art was top notch, from the environment and character design all the way through the symbols and animations. The music was a highly worthy compliment to all the other excellent assets, and played a big part in setting the tone. The story was basic but emotionally impactful. There is really nothing else you could ever ask for from a game. You should buy this and play it all the way through, or you're missing out.

Review title of ValeryIt's an experience worth having.

Thank you Microsoft for making this game available for the PC users. Please keep Xbox Live titles coming, I will support with my wallet.
This game does not disappoint from the very opening and onward. Great story, beautiful art, smooth framerate, fantastic controls, and to top it off, the music creates the sublime atmosphere filling one with feelings and emotions rarely experienced in modern games.
Highly recommend it.

Review title of PhilipGreat game, small tech glitch

The game is whimsical, moving, challenging and beautiful. I dig it. However I've noticed that after playing the game and exiting, the sound will not work on my next launch of the game. I have to restart windows in order for sound in the game to play again. Hmm.
And I've not scored a single achievement yet in 6 hours of play. Perhaps they aren't working?
Five stars if that glitch goes away!
Update: Achievements are now working (after opening the separate Xbox app for the first time), though the sound glitch continues. Fabulous game!

With an excellent story, addictive gameplay, and a dev team that loves speedrunners and challenge-seekers alike, you can't go wrong. You'll be saving the forest of Nibel again and again.

I just bought this game on sale yesterday for $9.99. Knowing what I know now of this game, I would have gladly paid full price. The game is beautiful & mesmerizing & the music just as much. To me, the music adds so much more to this game. I'm not that very far into this game yet but from the looks of the video shorts & screenshots it looks to be even better than what I've already played. Can't wait! If you're contemplating on buying this, BUY IT. You won't regret your purchase.
